Help me, please!

Hello, I am currently living; in the Bahamas. I am desperate to find authentic T3. I was on Levo, for years and felt like crap until my doctor in Boston provided a script for Cytomel!

My life changed, for those few months, until I had to return home! there is none provided, where I live. My body is so weak. I can barely get up, now and, I would not talk about the weight gain. I've doubled, what I lost. My lab results are:

TSH 2.8 mlU/L

Total T4 3.6 mcg/dL

Free T4 0.3 ng/dL

Total T3 20 ng/dL

Free T3 100 pg/dL

Can someone private message me, please? ! I am begging!

**No information about where to source T3 without prescription to be posted on the forum**

We don't know where you are! And that will change the answers you need - and get. :-)

Also, you have not given any reference intervals (ranges) for the test results. And are you absolutely sure you have typed them right?

You may not realise that you can edit, or delete, any posts or responses you have made here.

HealthUnlocked have produced some help for how to do this. You can find this here:

support.healthunlocked.com/...

When you edit the original post in a thread, you will also have the option to add (or remove) a single image. (To replace an image, remove the existing image, then add the new one.) This is the same process as writing a new post:

support.healthunlocked.com/...

I am pointing this out purely to ensure that you know your options. :-)

(If you make extensive changes, it is sometimes helpful to add a comment so that people can see that you have made changes.)

Hi, thank you, for your reply. I typed them, as I saw them on the print out.

I don't know , I went to the cheapest place here because the health insurance here is complete crap. Everything is completely over priced.

Where are you? :-)

(Not blaming you in any way - just trying to make sure that we start out as right as we can!)

Afraid I have no idea where you could get liothyronine from. Is it legal for you to import from abroad for your own use? I know it is legal in the UK. I tried to check but couldn't find anything relevant.

Hopefully others will have some idea.

Living in the Bahamas I would think best place to get it from is Mexico. It's 13 years since I was in Bahamas and everything was very "British" so perhaps it will be ok to bring it from Mexico. I'm sure there are people on here that know of a Mexican source so fingers crossed for you.
